Today, October 30th, is a bittersweet day for my
family and I. One year ago today my husband lost his best friend and our
children lost their god-father, Gary Ward Crawford, after only a three month battle with cancer. He left
behind a wife and three beautiful children ages 5, 8 and 16. Cancer is a devastating
disease that affects more people now than ever before and I.hate.it.with.a.passion!! Today is bitter
because this day a year ago the world lost
Mastering YOU Monday...who's lovin' you?
In our quest to mastering ourselves and mastering life, we must learn to master
our relationships with others!
I have come to the conclusion that issues women have with other women and people in general for that matter, can be solved immediately. How you ask? By following these two commandments…first:
love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind and soul, second: love your
neighbors as yourself. Easy peasy right…hah, if only it could be! We sometimes trip over that last one. Why?
Because many of us do just that…we love our neighbors just as we love ourselves…we
DON’T! We treat others just like we
treat ourselves…we beat each other up with our mouths(like we do ourselves),
Doing YOU WELL Wednesday #38 and something totally "new"
I don’t know about you all, but I’m finding myself not being
able to get to all the blogs that I love to read. So I thought to myself…”self,
how can I solve this problem”? You know me, I didn’t want it to just be myself
who benefits from the solution...I wanted to include all my friends! So I was thinking about
starting a FB group for us bloggers! I know, I know…been there, done that! And I'm sure some of us belong to a few…but I don’t know about you, I just seem to get
lost in those “big” groups and I’ve found that people just don’t play fair,
which is one of my major “pet peeves”!
How ugly can you get...my story!
I asked a question last week for Mastering YOU Monday…are
you willing to be “ugly” for one day in order to be “beautiful” in Him for a lifetime? You can read that post HERE. This week I’m
bringing to you Part 2!
My post from last week dealt with us giving of ourselves to help others. This week I’ll deal with us giving of ourselves, to help ourselves. How you ask do we help ourselves by giving of ourselves…so He can use us for His glory! I know, totally opposite from last week, huh? In essence though, this still applies to the question…how many of us are willing to die to our flesh to be in a position to be used greatly by Him? I promise, I’m going somewhere with this y’all!

Doing YOU WELL Wednesday #37 and some co-hosting
What day is it? Hump Daaaaaayyy! Welcome everyone to another Doing YOU WELL Wednesday! Hope you all are doing yourselves "fantabulously well"! Not too much going on here in the Pulliam household - it feels good to be able to wind down a little. So, I guess my "doing you well" for this week is that I get to chill-ax for a change! :-)
Did you all know that October is "Pastor's Appreciation Month"? So please make sure you tell/show your pastor how much you appreciate them!
